Favorite Quote:
"Help me mother, save me father. Keep me from fading away. Send me hope. Send me love. Remind me your not far away." The quote can mean whatever you want it to, but to me, it's about God, Our Father, and Mary, Our Mother.


All the old lies,
And all these old fights,
Keep holding me, changing me,
I'm no longer who I used to be.

I thought of that night,
And filled with fright,
At the thought of losing,
everyone and everything to you.
Then I stood up,
Got out of the mud,
Left all your lies lying there.

I thought that I wouldn't be scared,
But I'm filled with hurt,
I can't let go of you,
What you say and do, and
Now I keep thinking, I keep thinking,

Of all the old lies,
and all the old fights,
And how I'll never forget,
But you don't regret, No you don't regret!
All the old lies,
And all these old fights,
That keep holding me, changing me,
I'm no longer who I used to be…
